The 47th None

The 47th Amendment, ratified in 1922, guarantees women's right to vote in the United States by prohibiting states from denying or abridging voting rights based on sex. It ensures gender equality in voting, marking a significant step toward women's civil rights. This amendment extended the bill of rights to explicitly include women, confirming their eligibility to participate in federal and state elections. Essentially, it removed legal barriers that previously prevented women from voting, shaping a more inclusive democracy.
